Today is my birthday and you would be right to guess that I am 38 years old. It is a number that does not have a lot of meaning to me, except I am closer to the very significant age of 40, which is the new 30 and where life begins! Even my dear friend, Wikipedia, has little to say about the number which you can see here.


Looking back at the last 13870 days, it feels incredible what I have been able to achieve for myself and for others. I was reminded by a friend and colleague yesterday how positive I am, even when things are very difficult, and how that inspires others whatever their background. I think all I want is for everyone to have the opportunity to see their situation in a positive light and I really do not believe there is a but.


I look forward to the coming year and I am not life is going to be as exciting and rewarding as ever.
